I'd only seen the summary from IMDb and I'm glad of it:

Things go badly for a hack director and film crew shooting a low budget zombie movie in an abandoned WWII Japanese facility, when they are attacked by real zombies.

It's not that this summary is incorrect, just incomplete: this is a deliriously funny comedy about film production in the same way that Noises Off! took on the theatre. Every "WTF?" moment from the first 37 minutes gets a payoff. Heartwarming and wonderful.
